Anarkali Suit
Nothing encapsulates Indian ethnic fashion quite as perfectly as an Anarkali suit. This timeless ensemble with its flared kurta and churidar makes an elegant Eid look, making silk, chiffon or georgette fabrics particularly suitable. Opt for bright hues like royal purple, fuchsia pink or teal blue for an expensive and luxurious sheen that contrasts perfectly with dark fabrics like churidars with classic gold or silver zari borders or prints featuring florals, paisleys or traditional motifs to complete your Eid look.
Style it minimally with small jhumkas, bangles and kolhapuri heels or juttis for an Eid look! When it comes to makeup, focus on playing up the eyes using shimmer eyeshadow, winged liner and false lashes. Define brows, add highlighter and wear matte rosy lipstick – don’t forget about traditional chandbalis or mathapatti for that traditional Eid look!
Maxi Dress
Maxi dresses make relaxed yet glamorous Eid outfits, perfect for day events. Pick a flowy ankle-length dress with breezy fabric, vibrant colors and ornate accents reflective of Indian crafts. For inspiration, explore ikat prints, bandhani patterns, gota patti details, mirrorwork, thread embroidery or lustrous silks.
You can opt for a solid-colored maxi dress and elevate it with contrasting dupattas. Chiffon or georgette dupattas with zari borders and motifs will lend a festive grace. Layer this ensemble with sheer organza or lace jackets; another alternative could include wearing ankle-length pants or palazzos instead of leggings beneath your tunic dress.
Sharara Suit
Sharara suits are back in vogue, with their flowy pants and rich embellishments. They are perfect festive wear for Eid, combining elegance and old-world charm. Pick a silky sharara suit in a jewel-bright color like emerald, ruby or sapphire blue. Contrast with silver or gold gota patti on the kurta and dupatta. You can opt for classic patterns or morrocan-inspired prints and motifs too.Â
Elevate the look with statement earrings like chandbalis or jhumkis studded with kundan, polki or pearls. Wear your hair in soft curls or waves, adorned with gajra or hair accessories like mathapattis. For makeup, apply a copper or gold eyeshadow with lots of kajal. Highlight cheeks with blush and wear a bright matte lipstick. Complete with embroidered khussas or juttis to dance the night away at Eid parties!
Kurta Palazzo Set
Nothing feels more comfortable and elegant than a kurta palazzo set for Eid festivities. Pick a long flowy kurta in georgette, silk or chiffon fabric. Opt for unique prints like floral designs, paisleys, traditional jamawar or even geometric patterns like checks, stripes or polka dots for a modern twist.
You can pair the kurta with straight-fit pants or palazzos. Contrasting dupattas also help accentuate the look. Accessorize minimally with stud earrings, bangles and kolhapuri wedges. Leave your hair open in soft waves or pin up one side with floral hair pins. Apply a matte, nude lipstick and accent eyes with a winged liner. A small bindi will complete this effortlessly chic Eid look.
Gharara Suit Set
Epitomizing Muslim heritage and Mughal elegance, gharara suits make regal Eid outfits. Opt for rich fabrics like silk, brocade or velvet embellished with zardozi, gota patti and zari work. Jewel tones like deep red, emerald and sapphire blue or pastels like blush pink, mint green and lilac add playful femininity. The kurta can be sleeveless or with full sleeves. The flared gharara pants lend a voluminous silhouette while the dupatta adds drama.
Layer up with sheer organza dupattas or lace gowns over the gharara suit to balance skin show. For some sparkle, drape the dupatta like a cape or pin it up in creative ways. Add side slits to the kurta. As for jewelry, go with statement pieces like chokers, chandeliers and cocktail rings studded with uncut diamonds, emeralds and rubies.
